More seriously, have there been any people who have stated that from now on they will fly with SAS to stick it to the nazis?

A lot of the English language articles I’ve read mention that it seems to be manufactured outrage, and fragile bigots of all stripes take to that like oil to fire. Weird how “facts, not feelings” suddenly doesn’t apply to literal facts that offended certain types of feelings! while I’m one of the worst things Sweden has imported as of late, I’m sticking with “whatever is cheapest and not routing me through Ukraine or Russia” for my carrier of choice. Probs not Norwegian as they’re apparently loving around with the ARN-JFK route as of late.

SAS absolutely wanted the nazis to boycott them and it worked out pretty much perfectly. I heard on the radio that Sweden is getting a pretty substantial tax on plastic bags at grocery stores. I don't feel very strongly about it because I have those reusable bags. But the radio was blaring hot takes all day about it. From "paper bags are in fact as bad as plastic bags because more trees will have to be cut down" To people calling for abuse of store staff in revenge. Like not getting plastic bags for potatoes and onions and then just dumping them all on the conveyor in a big pile.

Anyone else admiring the unhinged political grafitti on the E47 overpasses between say, Hillerød and Ørestad? I had no idea what a "perker" was, had to ask. Apparently they are 41% of babies in Brøndby. Or something. "Soc Demokrater = Stalin", etc. I recall an early one praising Paludan.

I would've thought you'd be old enough to remember Perker spillet, as it was called then, which Jan Elhøj and Simon Jul Jørgensen commisioned for uland.net? DR just published a retrospective (which translates relatively using the usual suspects).

Katt posted:SAS absolutely wanted the nazis to boycott them and it worked out pretty much perfectly. Harassing store staff is idiotic and bad but the plastic bag tax isn't that great. Most plastic bags in Sweden end up as trash bags and are then burnt along with the trash for energy. This isnt the case in most countries where plastic bags end up in landfills or in the ocean. Most of the reusable canvas bags you'd have to use a ridiculous amount of times before they'd be climate friendly. Using less plastic is good but using a poorly thought out taxes that disproportionatly hit poor people is a bad way to go about it but unfortunately a really Miljöpartiet thing to do.

A lot of the debate is missing an extremely basic point. Why not just use the backpacks, shoulder bags and other assorted bags that most people have already? Or buy one of the millions available in second hand shops? Why do groceries need specific bags for that purpose? Buying more newly produced bags to try and save the environment is pure neolib nonsense. KozmoNaut fucked around with this message at 18:43 on Feb 15, 2020 |

Using less plastic is good but using a poorly thought out taxes that disproportionatly hit poor people is a bad way to go about it but unfortunately a really Miljöpartiet thing to do. ya. tote bags are usually made of cotton (which is terrible) and need many, many years of use, tens of thousands of plastic bags replacements, before they start becoming competitive with plastic bags in terms of co2 alone. and the kind of plastic bags you pay for in swedish grocery stores are quite durable in and of themselves and can be reused dozens if not hundreds of times. it's the same misguided bullshit as the "let's ban plastic straws" thing (which i hear is a policy idea originating with a literal pre-teen child). plastic contamination in the ocean to a large degree originates with (chinese) fishing nets. e: see here for a citation. you need to use a organic cotton tote bag over 20,000 times in order for it to start winning over grocery store plastic bags that are used for groceries once, then used as a trash bag and then burned. that's 55 years of use, assuming you use it once a day. if you are like me and have a few of them you've gotten as conference swag or w/e you better get crackin'. getting people to reuse grocery store plastic bags would be great but i don't think taxing them is the way to do that. my dad always did that and so i got into the habit of carrying a bag (be it plastic or canvas) in a coat pocket or my backpack from when i was a kid, but few other people i know do that TheFluff fucked around with this message at 23:30 on Feb 15, 2020 |

I use plastic bags because they are the most portable and reusable bags and they will be worth buying even if they tax them 1000%. Paper bags are not reusable at all and cloth bags are not very foldable and won't reduce my need for garbage bags anyway. The state of environmentalism really makes me depressed. There is a crime being committed by our society far greater than any in history, and environmentalists focus on getting rid of the energy source that contributes least to this crime and tsking about using "non-reusable" bags that I could probably fit 12 of in my jacket.

A Buttery Pastry posted:I can think of plenty of reasons. Those bags are already being used for carrying something else, they're far too small for groceries, or people don't want to risk some poo poo breaking and ruining their bag (and all its other content). Everyone I know has at least one Eastpak backpack or something similar laying around that they don't use anymore, old school bags and that sort of thing. One of those will hold several liters of milk, a bunch of veggies and other assorted groceries. You're not going to be stuffing it in with your papers or your laptop. Buying groceries doesn't usually come as a surprise. I'm using an old second hand laptop backpack where I'm trying to see how much additional use I can get out of it, and it generally fits what we need for two people. E: and the numbers on plastic bag reuse vs cotton bags are way off. It's in the hundreds of uses, not 55 years worth of use. KozmoNaut fucked around with this message at 00:01 on Feb 16, 2020 |

The only way your choice of bag is going to make a difference is if you use it to store the severed head of a fossil fuel CEO.

TheFluff posted:i showed you my citation, you show me yours The danish study inflates it's environmental numbers to insane degrees by using too many variables in its total environmental account and using really weird examples of what constitutes a bag. It's a fun thought example that got an unreasonable spread in news and social media because of the 20 000 figure being a click bomb. Climate-wise (the actually relevant metric) the number is 150 as you said. And if we look at what the study constitues as a bag that number can rapidly drops as far as to 37,5 uses as in the following example: https://twitter.com/Lollomos/status/1222809047910490112 Also you know, there are usually more than one study on topics. If a single study has sensational answers to a question, it never hurts to double-check whether other studies have asked similar questions and what answers they reached.

You people haven’t been using cotton bags for the last 20 years? Especially given the profit margin sellers have on plastic bags? The only reuse for plastic bags is for not having leaky trash bin and for that purpose just buy durable bags on a roll. As for the plastic straws, the EU ban is based on analysis of the most common plastic pollutant at beaches. And have triggered a massive change in certain industries. Not much to do with CO2 in fact. Also, didn’t Thailand outright ban plastic bags?

I'm using 5 fabric bags of ages 2-7 for pretty much all my purchases by car. I mean they've never broken, and even if they did stitching them back together is neither rocket science or expensive. They're also easy to dump into the back of a car or a backpack if you're into that sort of thing.Cardiac posted:The only reuse for plastic bags is for not having leaky trash bin and for that purpose just buy durable bags on a roll. Also this 100%. Roll-bags are all that is used in child- and elderly care and you really you don't need more than that for household needs. Cardiac posted:Also, didn’t Thailand outright ban plastic bags? Thailand and a few others this year, I vaguely remember one of the bans sparking a social media trend. I'd actually say the fact that we went for a tax instead of a ban is an outright policy failure.

Gedt posted:Dads cousin operates iirc the biggest dairyfarm in Södermanland, im sure i could get some purestrain Okay last friday I spooned out the contents of a filbunke into 5 other bowls, could have gotten more if I wanted to. Anyway filled them with regular whole milk and some cream and put them in room temp for 24 hours, then into the fridge. This morning I tried one and hey, it's viili. Not as strongly flavoured as the commercial stuff, but I think with time it will increase. I prefer it like this though. So completely doable with regular homogenized and pasteurized milk.
